The Golden Eagle appeared ready to be released. She wouldn't go. A few months later she was transferred to The Bird Treatment and Learning Ccnter in Anchorage, where there is a flight cage. |

Oh where to go????? |

The grass is deeper here. |
This is a comfy branch, can air my wings here. |

I may look tough, |
but staying at the AWBRC may be best for me. |
